    Im surprised people are walking by.
    I find Sam to be a minimalist musical genius. He utilizes silence as well as Miles Davis. This music is an act of meditation in motion.
    I respect his work and his pushing music forward.
    Keep up the amazing work, Sam. You're impressing many of us.

    I love that the two deep in conversation are in the center of the frame then they just stop and watch when he starts looping in a drum beat using a loop pedal and the body of his saxophone.

    The natural sounds of the environment (people taking, water flowing, general noise) makes me feel like this video is not just a live performance but a studio quality take as well of his music.

    • @zsebestien7050

      I've noticed Gendel's does this a lot in his live performances, definitely inspired by John Cage. As we all should be honestly.

  • @teelurizzo8542

    Love that haunting keyboard intro, those two chords and the timbre is like a classic DX7 patch and a bit reminiscent of one of my all time favorite TV Music themes, the opening to the original 'Law & Order' show, from the 1990s.

    This guy is great. His music is what 21. century music may be imagined to be. I have seen also his Death Valley clip, again 21. century pop there, very new approach. Fantastic!

  • @marksaxon2468
    @marksaxon2468 5 ปีที่แล้ว +94

    Gendel is a complete genius...at 30:01 the train tracks sound, and he is in a train station and the synth's overtone on the sax represents the train signalling and then you have the all on board broadcast from the train stations speakers. and the harmony, the dexterity. The beauty of his melody is something I have never heard before.

    • @JonnyParker-
      @JonnyParker- 2 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      Yeah i agree he is in an elite category of artists who can make those one time only kind of tracks that cant ever be replicated again (possibly even by himself) . Anyone thats produced music knows exactly what i mean when you manage to connect to something and are totally in the zone and record or produce a track or whatever and then dont realise how you managed to pull it all off and put in all the subtle nuances and other little trills and harmonic overtones. That album he did with his little stepsister a few months back called "LIVE A LITTLE" is a perfect example of how utterly genius the guy is (plus that Antonina has some serious talent for a kid) ; they both just came up with that album in like a jam setting and did it all in one take . It is insane, one of my most listened to albums of 2022 by far man and is truly something special .
